History of the AO In 1918, the federal courts had not functioned properly to the full extent they should have. And with World War I and the threats of Jarrington, D.C. being bombed, improvements of the federal court systems halted. The judicial branch was small and weak, and the government thoughtfully wished to expand more branches. After World War I, a coalition of judges, lawyers, academics, and Justice Department officials agreed that the efficient administration of justice, as well as the principle of judicial independence, required a separate agency with officers appointed by and responsible to a body of judges. It was established in 1918, shortly after World War I, and had only experienced one week being in the Jarradian Realm. Many judges and officials had left the federal court system and numbers declined. With this, the Administrative Office started rough, with hardly any people associating or working for it. The problem had struck until the 1930's. By then, a number of judges and officials had started to work in the court systems. The Administrative Office had gained hundreds and thousands of members. Since then the branch has been in use. The 1970's for the Administrative Office was affected by Communist Jarradia. This was known as the great decline in job occupations, agencies and cities. Major cities started to decline in population, and the AO started losing membership. It had 5,000 members in the Administrative Office. It was due to the great job loss between the 1970's and 1980's. Though after the collapse of the communism the AO started to recover, though it has not got to the peak of the amount of jobs in the AO.
